Riyadh, alternately Riad, alternately Riyadh the facilitator, is a pseudonym that was given to a number of individuals who were suspected to be member of al-Qaeda. American intelligence officials and the press used the pseudonym for at least two individuals.〔 〕〔 〕〔 〕 In an interview with ''National Public Radio'' Douglas Cox, a law Professor at City University of New York stated that one of his clients who was a Guantanamo detainee, Riyadh al-Haigh, was suspected by American intelligence officials of being Riyadh the facilitator.〔 〕 Human rights groups, and other media used the pseudonym in connection with a man who was held in the CIA network of clandestine interrogation centers. Human Rights Watch identified the man as Abdul Rahim al-Sharqawi and other media identified him as Abdu Ali Sharqawi.〔 〕 Human Rights Watch continued to believe he was held in CIA custody into 2005.〔 〕 According to an article published in ''US News and World Report'' in May 2003 a man called Riyadh was ''"responsible for managing al Qaeda's affairs in Pakistan"''.〔 〕 They reported he was captured in Karachi in January 2002. They reported that he was the first senior al Qaeda member to be captured, and that his capture lead to a chain of captures that included Abu Zubaydah, Jose Padilla, Omar al Farouq, and Ramzi bin al-Shibh. Some of their findings are based on unnamed intelligence sources. ==References== 〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Riyadh the facilitator」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
